I recently tore down my overgrown 30 gallon long. I am in the process of rescaping it but I feel like I'm missing a lot. I plan on breeding german blue rams again or apistos in the tank. I'm looking for suggestions...
Here is what I have available for plants to add.

Currently have bacopa carolina, red ludwigia, anubias on driftwood, crypt wendti red, crypt walkeri, microsword, staurogyne porto (I think)
I also have an unknown crypt I need help identifying, its the tall green one in the corners that looks like valisneria

Balansae I believe

Thanks, that's what (2) $2.50 worth of walmart plants gets you after 3 years of basically neglect.
When I went to pull them, the entire substrate came up in a mat/sheet so there was nothing but bare glass under.

Wow, a nice crypt forrest :)
Now, if I only could figure out how to grow one for myself.

I would try some fine leaved plants like Ambulia, L. aquatica, Mayaca. Limnophilia aromatica is a nice plant. And no tank is complete without a Tiger Lotus ;)

Some reasonably sized Hygrophilia, like kompact. And some basic rotalas.
